"So, did you like the fight?" Kamra asked the ten agents. "Those are the trainees that aren't yet considered as official soldiers, with the exception of the commanders. The regular soldiers of the army are the hobgoblins and the high kobolds. They are stronger, faster, and know a couple more war tactics. Though, even the trainees in our blood equipment could fight well against your human soldiers. Mainly because you humans underestimate them and consider them as mindless beasts."

"I like the strategy used by the high kobold girl. She must be an exceptional strategist to win against a force identical to hers in power and win so decisively... Also the goblins seemed stronger and acting way more orderly than the usual monsters you see in the wild." said Henry, while the rest were feeling somewhat frustrated by Kamra's mean words.

"Mhm, Snen is one of the strongest warriors from the kobolds. She has great intellect and pretty good strength and agility. Though Baz isn't bad either. His charisma could inspire the soldiers, and his prowess and valor are great too." added Kamra, then went forward to show the other parts of Cavetown. Henry was the first one to follow her, while the rest started walking behind him soon after.

"These are the armory and weaponry," she said pointing towards two adjacent buildings. "You can come here for weapon and armor maintenance, and of course it will be free for you. Later, after the training finishes, you might be gifted a set of blood armor depending on your accomplishments. This was what her highness said, so show what you can actually do. Though, after your scene not long ago, who knows if you will get anything at all..." once again, she said something rude, but no one dared to say anything back. The total silence continued until they reached another building, with a big red cross above the entrance.

"This one is the so named "hospital". All town comes here if they feel pain anywhere or are wounded. Her highness made it so the healers' services would be free for all, no matter who he is, a commander or a farmer."

"That's very nice of her, but isn't it way too costly to do this? I mean, she could earn quite the money if she made their services cost at least the lowest price..." said Ecna, looking with large and curious eyes at the red cross.

"Well, we weren't getting paid at all in the first place. We started to include the Kingdom's coins in Cavetown after she became the queen. This just shows once again how much she cares about the lives of us all." said Kamra

"Yup, our queen is indeed one of the strangest rulers I've ever seen. She actually cares about the lives of the simple folk and even takes care of the monsters and their rights. I'm sure she'll bring great changes to this turbulent times on the continent and maybe influence the whole world in the future..." said Henry, thinking about the possible changes that might come with Emily's sudden appearance. Next, Kamra showed them the fields, where the women were usually working.

As it was also hard physical work, they gained XP, even though in smaller quantities compared to the exercises the soldiers were doing. Several women managed to evolve to their next evolution recently, increasing the work they could actually do. The main fruits and vegetables cultivated there were the gobba fruit, which was somewhat similar to the sweet potato from earth but had twice the size, and chuhri, which was in the form of a star and tasted like carrot. Though these fruits and their names would be considered strange by anybody from earth, they were the usual food for people living in this world.

"So while the boys are mainly activating in the military, the girls take care of the agricultural, educational and population-increasing aspect of this town, right?" Henry asked Kamra, intrigued.

"Yup, though we actually give them a choice. A good example would be Snen, the high kobold girl you have seen during the training. She chose to fight with other men on the battlefield instead of working in the field and was the first kobold to evolve. Now she serves as the main commander of the kobold force in Cavetown and is also one of the most loyal subordinates of our queen. Well, the next thing we're gonna visit is the local school." she said and went ahead.

The school was situated near the middle of the village, taking into consideration the safety of the children. On the way there, the group gave different questions they were interested in.

"Kamra, why is this place called Cavetown? And does it mean there is a cave somewhere near?" asked one of the three girls in the whole group.

"This was the first place established by Queen Emily on her way to greatness. It was named Cavetown because there is a cave in the middle of the town, and it serves as the starting point of this town. Though, now it would be hard to spot the cave with all these buildings around. The name was also proposed by Queen Emily herself." she said proudly.

"Now that I think about it, how old is actually our queen? She managed to do so much at her young age. This just shows how exceptional she is..." asked a man.

"Well, even though we more or less know how old she is, we were ordered to not reveal this information to anybody, absolutely anybody." while talking, they finally reached the school. It was a pretty big building, as to give space to the larger monsters to study there, too. The walls from the outside were painted in white, with different drawings here and there. Outside the school, there were several guards patrolling around, ensuring the safety of the children and the teachers. Kamra entered first through the main door where another woman came and greeted them.

"Welcome, Kamra and guests, to the school of Cavetown. As we were told you would come today, we would like for you to assist at one of our lesson. We specially prepared a couple seats for you." she said smiling. This woman's name was Uvril, a vampire with the succubi class and the headmaster of the school. She was assigned first as a teacher, but managed to rise up to her current post thanks to hard work, patience and professionalism.

"Hi, Uvril. I brought them here to show everything around. I think they would like to assist at one of your lessons. Right, guys?" Kamra asked the group, without actually giving them a choice.
